Well, added the game to Steam Greenlight, let's see how it goes there.

It's been a while since I played Harvest Moon, mostly because none of the newer titles have the same tone and mood as they used to, but I had been craving to pick one of the olders one again recently.

I'll give this demo a go, it seems to remind me a lot of the SNES, GBA, and DS Harvest Moons. If I like what I see I'll vote for it on Steam.

I voted for you and shared it on FB. I hope I can wake the interest of other FB users too. This awesome game really deserves it. <3 (\s/)

The votes have been quite good so far. All I need is more visibility and I should get there

Voted. Hopefully it gets greenlit soon.

So the 512x512 picture was for this

I think I can sort that out. Gotta go vote too though

 

[Hudell]

Thank you both

So the 512x512 picture was for this

Yup. And I later found out that that picture is the most important part of the greenlight campaign, as people need to click on it to see the game.

I think I can sort that out.

ohhh, what are you planning?

 

[EternalShadow]

ohhh, what are you planning?

Could blog it when I have time. Already shared on social media.

I have a question! How the hell did the game figure out my real name?? With the odd spelling and everything. Kinda weird...

Hahaha, it's your windows username.

 

[Proteus]

Lol, clever little game!

 

[RainbowGrenade]

This looks so fun!  I hope I can squeeze in some time to play the demo!

The project is one year old today!

And I just need a few more votes to be greenlit, today is the perfect day for it to happen!

You've got my vote on Steam.  My kids (boy and girl) both love playing this type of game.  Good luck!!

 

[SomaelCK]

Take my upvote! RM needs more commercial games like this!

Oh and I will let people know about this game on my social network too. (if you don't mind).

 

[Hudell]

Dear Hudell,

I have tried your Orange Season for some minutes and want to share you my impression. If you don't mind the following are list of my impression:

Pros:

1. Lots of custom stuff realky make it a unique game;

2. Farming theme, I like it so much;

3. Bright and fun art, thanks to Celliana;

4. Nice audio

Cons: (For my personal taste)

1. No cutscene in game opening will make new user have no idea what he need to do;

2. I don't really like the character sprite eye (Big pupil without white eye)

3. No character bust for NPC (like Harvest Moon)

4. Fullscreen issue (If I set the in game option to fullscreen, will make Alt+Enter not work)

5. Control issue (Can I set them to using A,S,D,F key in my keyboard?)

6. Weeds and other farm stuff should cannot be placed outside it, in Harvest Moon, throwing them outside farm field will make them dissappear

If you release your game, I'll likely to buy it as I really appreciate your work.

Regards,

Ryan

Thanks! Except for 2 and 6, all of your cons are things that are on my list to be changed already

I always assumed that HM games wouldn't let me throw items on the ground outside the farm fields because the items were not sprites, but different tiles on the farm map.

Since I'm not doing it that way, I can let the player put their items anywhere.
